1. WARM UP
“The service we render others is the rent we pay for our room on Earth.” -Sir Wilfred Grenfell
What does this mean to you?
How can you be of service to others?

2. Introduction to Quantum Mechanics

3. Wave Mechanics Transmit energy Wavelength and Frequency
Inversely proportional

4. Wave Mechanics
Electromagnetic spectrum
Continuous gradient

5. Quantum Theory
Max Planck’s emission spectra show levels of energy in e-

6. Quantum Theory
Light released when e- drop from a higher level (excited state) to a lower one (ground state)

7. Wave / Particle Duality
Albert Einstein’s photoelectric effect experiment showed certain light waves release metal e-
Light is both a wave and a particle (photon)

8. The Big Bang Theory

9. Wave / Particle Duality
Louis de Broglie – Dual Electron
e- behave like both particles and waves

10. Quantum Mechanics Erwin Schrodinger
Energy levels/shells are really wave regions

11. Quantum Mechanics

12. The Big Bang Theory

13. Quantum Mechanics Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle Werner Heisenberg
You can’t simultaneously know the speed and position of an e-
You can’t “see” the wave and particle at the same time

14. Quantum Mechanics
